[July 4, 2024] I’m a patriot. I’m loyal to our Nation. And I make no apologies for it. Period. On this 4th of July, I plan to salute America as I recognize the birth date of the country.

[June 27, 2024] Don’t you just love the Babylon Bee. Their satire is, frankly, over the top at times and I love it. Their headline today, BREAKING: Hamas Loses House Seat to Democrats. This is a reference to incumbent Congressman Jamaal Bowman, who lost in the recent primary to Democrat George Latimer. Yes, Bowman did, indeed, lose. But… Read More »
[June 26, 2024] One trait of my Mom that I admired was that she could remain calm while the chaos of us children swirled all around her.
